The holiday season is in full swing. Millions of Poles spend their long-awaited holidays in sea and mountain resorts. Others only plan a trip in the last days of August. Not all employees can boast of a holiday. From year to year, more and more people refuse to vacation in the country and spend their holidays in May or September and October. And list the benefits of such a holiday.
Holidays during the holidays is one of the main topics currently being discussed on social media. Every day, Internet users post photos, posts, reports and detailed descriptions of their weekends on vacation both at home and abroad. Users are happy to share their personal lives.
Holiday vacation. Internet users flooded the Web with holiday photos.
Some flood the network and friends with a series of dozens of photos a day. They include photos from famous tourist spots, while relaxing on the beach, from walks on the beach, sea baths or sunsets from different places. Not everyone can boast of vacation travel. A significant part of Internet users either already went on vacation in April-May, or are only planning a vacation in the coming months.
- This year, for the first time on a “vacation trip” I went in May, and the destination was the Greek island of Corfu. says Aleksander Zarusky, an employee of the Warsaw public relations agency, in an interview with Wprost.pl. He says he made this decision for several reasons.
Holidays on vacation? Many prefer to relax in the off-season
- Firstly, this is the weather - from mid-June, and especially in July and August, it is extremely hot in the countries of the Mediterranean basin. Rest at a temperature of 35 and above is not pleasant. Added to this are the recent waves of fires in Greece, Croatia and Sicily. In the second half of May in Corfu I had a daytime temperature of 22-24 degrees in the shade, but the felt temperature was around 30 degrees Celsius. He says.
- The second reason is the congestion of tourist regions. In May, there are far fewer tourists to be seen in the cities, on the beaches, or when visiting tourist attractions. The third reason is financial issues - a trip in May is much cheaper if you choose the option from a travel agency. This is a saving of a thousand or more zlotys per person. he adds. In his opinion, another important factor is the organization of professional work. It is much easier to adjust the team’s vacation calendar when the trip is planned outside the “high season”.
Holidays in July and August? More and more often we plan holidays in the off-season.
Other employees speak in the same tone. - I like getting out of the season the most. I spent most of my vacation in the first half of the year, where I rested and explored wonderful places. I’ll probably do something in the fall. A trip to the Polish mountains is planned - says Marzhena, an employee of the marketing department at a medical company. And he lists the pros and cons of such trips outside of July and August.
- There are definitely fewer people, but you have to reckon with the fact that some attractions are still closed. Of the minuses - unpredictable weather. I was on the Polish coast in May and it was quite cold for me. But the whole beach was at my disposal. There were no queues even in popular pubs he adds.
We divide the holidays into weekly stays. Rest all year round
Alexander notes that this year he decided to divide his vacation into three parts per week. Such a seven-day trip is enough for me to rest and gain strength. In this way, I can also enjoy my vacation longer, see and experience more. September is considered the perfect month for holidays. More and more people are doing the same. Employees willingly divide their holidays into weekly escapades and travel to pre-selected destinations throughout the year.
“We don’t have holidays anymore,” objected one Internet user. - “In February, we took a two-week holiday with the kids. Then a slightly longer picnic and another week of rest. It was similar in June, when we went to rest after school at the site. he lists. “We only have a few vacation days left before the vacation we are planning now. We are planning a trip to the sea in September. We want to use the rest of the holiday in December between Christmas and New Years.” he adds.
A holiday is a holiday regardless of when we rest. Good break from work
Vacation should and should be used for a well-deserved rest, regardless of whether we decide to take it in July and August or in the off-season, labor market experts say. Mateusz Zydek from the recruiting company Randstad speaks in the same vein. - Occupational health experts recommend that we take at least one longer vacation per year, preferably two weeks. This longer rest time allows you to effectively forget about your duties and restore your mind and body. – said the expert in an interview with Wprost.pl.
— Our research shows that the majority of Polish employees try to plan one longer two-week vacation, but whether they manage to leave work depends largely on how we organize before the vacation, whether we effectively distribute duties and close professional affairs. - added.
